InfluxDB Buckets API
Store your data in InfluxDB [buckets](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/reference/glossary/#bucket). A bucket is a named location where time series data is stored. All buckets have a [retention period](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/reference/glossary/#retention-period), a duration of time that each data point persists. InfluxDB drops all points with timestamps older than the bucket’s retention period. A bucket belongs to an organization. ### Related guides - [Manage buckets](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/organizations/buckets/)
